Against a calling station isn't it better to try to hit your draws as cheap as possible? The villain in this hand has an AF of .33, so him raising the small lead of 5 or so on the turn would be rare unless he has a set.

Do youthink he is going to bet if checked to here?

I am operating on the assumption that if he will simply smooth call a 4$ or $5 bet on the turn, he will also prob check behind if checked to. I prefer to take a probable free card rather than "price myself in"

I disagree. Passive players who have hit some of the flop will often just call a small bet, but bet themselves when checked to. As a standard bet on the turn with ~$30 in the pot would be $15-25, getting him to flat call a $5-8 bet would be a coup.

Anyone else see a problem with c-betting a whiffed flop into a calling station?

TC,

"I think hes hit this flop, but i dont know what my line is here after ive picked up a pretty good draw oop."

Since you did c-bet; how can a calling station making a call give you any hint to whether he hit this flop or not?

First don't bet so much on that flop - it's pretty drawless, so there isn't much to protect against.

As played, I don't think he's folding, but I don't think he will bet too much on the turn either. I check planning to call pretty much any bet, as I have really good implied odds when I hit.
